Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Dapao turned around to see Li Hang fallen on the ground, one hand holding a gun, and quickly helped him up with the other hand.

Li Hang coughed twice, feeling a dull pain in his chest.

The two of them hurriedly ran towards the house behind them.

This white three-story building had its doors already open; they had been looted here when the apocalypse first broke out.

Bang bang~

Bullets whizzed past them.

A ten-meter distance, for the few seconds they just ran, was undoubtedly a matter of life and death.

As soon as they entered the house, Dapao said to Li Hang:

”Li Hang, are you alright?”

Li Hang ripped open his outer clothing.

Ding dong~

A bullet fell onto the house’s polished floor, creating a crisp sound.

A dent was visible on the black bullet-proof vest, where the bullet that fell to the ground probably came from.

”I’m fine, luckily I wore a bullet-proof vest, but my chest hurts a bit, probably a fractured rib, cough cough cough,” Li Hang said with a pained expression.

Dapao looked around and saw Li Tie wrapping his lower leg privately.

And Ding Jiu pressing down on his shoulder blade, his complexion somewhat pale, blood seeping out.

Lai Dongsheng was holding a submachine gun, standing at the doorway on guard.

Now, the only ones uninjured were him and Lai Dongsheng. He looked at Li Hang next to him and asked, ”Can you still fight?”

Li Hang immediately responded, ”No problem, of course I can.”

With a groan, Li Tie finally tied a knot on the cloth around his lower leg, then panting heavily, said, ”Let’s go upstairs, they might come over later, we need to use this building.”

At those words, Li Hang immediately helped Ding Jiu up and headed upstairs.

Lai Dongsheng closed the now deformed iron gate, then moved a table and chairs to block the entrance.

...

The group reached the second floor.

The detached building had a front door near the national road, but there was also a back door, and behind the back door was a small courtyard.

After going upstairs, Dapao looked at Ding Jiu and others, and said, ”Uncle Lai, you take the back door, watch if anyone comes, and I’ll take the front door.

Xiao Hang, check if you can contact the base with the walkie-talkie, see if the distance can connect.”

Li Hang nodded, then took out the walkie-talkie from his backpack, but the movement probably touched his rib, causing him to gasp from pain.

After Li Hang took out the walkie-talkie, seeing Ding Jiu who had almost closed his eyes, he said to Li Tie, ”Bro Tiezi, go help Uncle Ding with the bandaging. I’m not good at it...”

After hearing this, Li Tie hurriedly glanced at Ding Jiu. In the rush earlier, he didn’t notice Ding Jiu’s shoulder was still bleeding.

Li Tie hopped on one foot towards Ding Jiu, looking at the messy wound on his shoulder blade.

Feeling troublesome, he said to everyone, ”Old Ding, his wound is too deep, we need to stop the bleeding fast, or he won’t last long.”

Saying that, he violently tore off a piece of cloth, balled it up, and pressed it against the wound.

”Ah...” Ding Jiu opened his eyes, his face pale.

Li Hang turned on the walkie-talkie, hearing Ding Jiu’s cries of pain, and immediately walked over to him.

Li Hang said nervously to Ding Jiu, ”Uncle Ding, you must hold on, I’m contacting the base right now.”

After turning on the walkie-talkie, whether due to distance or some other reason, he couldn’t get through. Li Hang looked at the pale-faced Ding Jiu, his eyes suddenly reddening.

He and Ding Jiu’s daughter, Qingqing, were classmates, and after the apocalypse, they got together. Now seeing his future father-in-law in such a state, he felt extremely distressed.

Li Tie, thinking how it was due to saving him that Ding Jiu got injured, felt immensely guilty.

”Uncle Ding, please endure a bit,” Li Tie said, then tore off another long strip of cloth, lifting Ding Jiu’s arm and proceeding with bandaging.

This was only a temporary measure to stop the bleeding. Although it worked, it was just a temporary solution.

If he didn’t receive treatment within an hour, Uncle Ding might very likely succumb to shock.

Li Hang kept calling on the walkie-talkie, but still without any response, seeing Uncle Ding about to close his eyes again.

Almost bursting into tears, he thought of Qingqing, unable to imagine how distraught she would be if she learned of her father’s death.

So he said, ”Uncle Ding, Qingqing is still waiting for you to come back.”

Uncle Ding suddenly opened his eyes, then looking at Li Hang said, ”You’re a good kid, cough cough cough, I’ll leave Qingqing in your care from now on. With you here, I’m reassured.”

After saying that, his hand slowly dropped, about to pass out again.

Watching this, the tears in Li Hang’s eyes almost fell; he seemed to think of something, his eyes shifting as if he had an idea, then he hastily said:

”Uncle Ding, there’s something I haven’t had the chance to tell you, Qingqing is pregnant.”

”What???” Ding Jiu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes widened like a donkey’s.

Ding Jiu furiously said, ”You little rascal! Good job! I’m really going to beat you to death.”

Years of nurturing his precious daughter, and to think this fool ruined it; his chest felt tight all of a sudden.

His hands were about to strike Li Hang’s face, but seeing Li Hang’s concerned gaze, his emotions shifted and he lowered his hands.

He hadn’t expected Li Hang to actually manage this.

Beside them, Li Tie was also dumbfounded, wondering if this was really acceptable.

Ding Jiu thought to himself, if his daughter Qingqing was going to have a child, wouldn’t he soon be a grandpa?

The child was born without a Grandpa.

Besides, he also wanted to see his own granddaughter.

Moreover, Li Hang must not get into trouble, otherwise, his daughter and granddaughter would be without a husband and father.

Ding Jiu pointed at Li Hang and said, ”You little rascal, just you wait.”

Struggling to get up from the ground, he had to hold on, he had to get back.

At this moment, Dapao, who was on guard on the other side, said, ”They are coming!”

Li Hang quickly got up, bending over as he walked towards that balcony.

They saw a large group of people forming a semi-circle and slowly walking in their direction.

At the forefront, there were about thirty people holding firearms.

They just surrounded them without firing.

Dapao, standing behind a wall, peeked out slightly and said to everyone, ”We need to hold on, I noticed they hardly fired their guns just now, it feels like they don’t have many bullets.

As long as we hold on, it’s already getting dark, the base will definitely send someone to look for us.”

Li Tie also said, ”I also noticed earlier that they fired their guns very slowly, probably because they’re low on ammo. Xiao Hang, did you bring the night vision goggles?”

Upon hearing this, Li Hang quickly searched the backpack he brought while running here, thankfully he had brought the backpack.

After searching, Li Hang happily pulled out three night vision goggles from inside.

He then handed them over to Dapao and the others.

.....

Below this small building, Hua Chuanlong had people search their vehicle, only finding some food and a few shovels among other trivial items.

”Big brother, what do we do now, it’s getting dark. Just now some of the brothers behind mentioned encountering several zombies, though they were all chopped down, but now it’s late, and it’s dangerous at night.”

Upon hearing this, Hua Chuanlong’s gaze sharpened and he said, ”Are you suggesting we let them go?

They have guns! They must be from some sort of force, they must be around here, we must capture them, otherwise all my effort would have been wasted!

Get out, and have everyone turn on the car headlights, aimed at that building.”

After hearing what big brother said, the younger brother opened his mouth, but still didn’t say anything, knowing the boss well enough that if he talked further, he would probably be in serious trouble.

Some people around him who had come along, without firearms and holding spears, were starting to panic.

Now, not a single grain of food had been spotted; they had run so far, many had died along the way, and it was getting late, probably dark in a few minutes.

Being in the dark outside was no joke, if a horde of zombies came, they would all be doomed.

In fact, some zombies were already on their way here.

Just a moment ago, due to the sound of gunfire, it attracted around a dozen zombies nearby, but they were all disposed of.

At this point, both hungry and thirsty, with darkness approaching, it meant danger.

So, they started causing trouble:

”Hua boss, we’ve followed you this far, it’s so late now, and we haven’t seen a thing.”

”Yes, exactly, on the way here we were only focusing on escaping, many of us couldn’t even keep up.”

”It’s getting dark, it’s dangerous, we should find a place to hide.”

”Yes, although they are few in number, they all have guns, and you also have guns, are we just cannon fodder then?”

”Let’s disperse, ....”

....

These kinds of voices constantly appeared beside Hua Chuanlong, one after another, growing more numerous. He was originally thinking of making an example by killing one of them.

But seeing the situation, that was not feasible anymore.

So, he turned to his subordinate and said, ”How much food do we still have? I remember, we brought all our food here.”

The subordinate appeared confused, not knowing why the boss asked this.

The restlessness among the civilians grew louder, Hua Chuanlong glanced at the subordinate, impatiently saying, ”Speak.”

The subordinate timidly replied, ”Yes, we brought it all here, it’s in the two vehicles at the back.”

Hua Chuanlong thought for a moment and said, ”Bring one of the vehicles here, distribute the food to them, so they calm down.”

After hearing that, the subordinate hurriedly said, ”But, these supplies aren’t even enough for our own people for a week, if we distribute them now, what will we eat?”

Hua Chuanlong glared and said, ”When we find that base, will we still lack food? We still need these people to help us, once we find that force and seize their food, will we be short of it? Hurry up.”

After hearing that, the subordinate didn’t say anything more. Since the boss had decided, with his temperament, he would certainly not listen to other ideas now, and he didn’t have a better solution either.

Hua Chuanlong walked towards the group of civilians and said, ”Brothers, I’m distributing our food. This is all I have.

Let’s quickly deal with the people in that building, and then find out about that force, seize their food.

Then everyone can eat to their heart’s content.”

The surroundings instantly quieted down.

This was followed by cheers.

”Hua boss Weiwu.”

”Hua boss is awesome.”

”Alright, give us something to eat, and we’ll follow you.”

...

In the crowd, Xu Yan glaringly stared at Hua Chuanlong, with a dagger in his hand, glistening slightly in the reflection of the car lights.

However, he suddenly saw two of Hua Chuanlong’s men standing next to him and reluctantly put the dagger away.
